ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline (Randomization) in Renal FunctionBaseline, Week 24
Change in renal function was measured by change in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). GFR calculated using the abbreviated modification of diet in renal disease (aMDRD) formula. GFR in mL/min/1.73m\^2 for men of non-black ethnicity: 186 \* \[C/88\]\^-1.154 \* \[A\]\^-0.023\*G\*R ; C = serum creatinine (in μmol/L); A = Age (in years). G = 0.742 when the patient is a women; Otherwise G=1 R= 1.21 when the patient was of black ethnicity; Otherwise R = 1 Baseline was Day 28 visit.
SecondaryNumber of Patients With Treatment FailuresAt week 12 and week 24
Incidence of treatment failures, assessed with composite criterion including treated biopsy proven acute rejection (tBPAR) with a rejection activity index (RAI) according to Banff classification \>3, graft loss or death at 6 months. Biopsy proven acute rejection (BPAR) was defined as a clinically suspected acute rejection confirmed by biopsy. The Banff Rejection Activity Index (RAI) comprises 3 components scored from 0 to 3: venous endothelial inflammation; bile duct inflammation damage; and portal inflammation; the scores are combined to an overall score (the RAI) ranging from 0 to 9. An overall score of 0-3 is considered indeterminate, score of 4-5 is mild acute, score of 6-7 is moderate acute , and score of 8-9 is severe acute. Only the episode with the highest total RAI score for each participant was counted. The graft was presumed to be lost on the day the patient was registered again on the waiting list, or the day he/she received a new graft.
SecondaryNumber of Patients With Treated or Not Treated Biopsy Proven Acute Rejection (BPAR)at 12 week and 24 weekBiopsy proven acute rejection was defined as a clinically suspected acute rejection confirmed by biopsy.
SecondaryNumber of Patients Reported With Different Categories of Severity of BPAR According to Banff Classificationat 12 week and 24 week
Biopsy proven acute rejection was defined as a clinically suspected acute rejection confirmed by biopsy. The severity of BPAR was categorized as : Mild (Banff grade I, RAI = 4 and 5) Moderate (Banff grade II, RAI = 6 and 7) Severe (Banff grade III, RAI = 8 and 9) Banff Rejection Activity Index (RAI) comprises 3 components scored from 0 to 3: venous endothelial inflammation; bile duct inflammation damage; and portal inflammation; the scores are combined to an overall score (the RAI) ranging from 0 to 9. An overall score of 0-3 is considered indeterminate, score of 4-5 is mild acute, score of 6-7 is moderate acute , and score of 8-9 is severe acute. Only the episode with the highest total RAI score for each participant was counted.
SecondaryNumber of Patients With Treated or Untreated BPAR With RAI Score Greater Than 3At 24 weeks
Biopsy proven acute rejection (BPAR) was defined as a clinically suspected acute rejection confirmed by biopsy. The Banff Rejection Activity Index (RAI) comprises 3 components scored from 0 to 3: venous endothelial inflammation; bile duct inflammation damage; and portal inflammation; the scores are combined to an overall score (the RAI) ranging from 0 to 9. An overall score of 0-3 is considered indeterminate, score of 4-5 is mild acute, score of 6-7 is moderate acute , and score of 8-9 is severe acute. Only the episode with the highest total RAI score for each participant was counted. The patients with treated or untreated BPAR having RAI score \> 3 were reported in this end point.
SecondaryNumber of Patients With Death or Graft Lossat week 24The graft was presumed to be lost on the day the patient was registered again on the waiting list, or the day he/she received a new graft.
SecondaryChange From Baseline (Randomization) in Serum CreatinineBaseline, Week 24Change in serum creatinine concentrations from baseline (randomization) to week 24 post-randomization was one of the efficacy assessments of renal function. Baseline was Day 28 visit.
SecondaryChange From Baseline (Randomization) in Urine Protein/Creatinine RatioBaseline, week 24Change in urine protein/creatinine ratio from baseline (randomization) to week 24 post-randomization was one of the efficacy assessments of renal function. Baseline was Day 28 visit.
SecondaryChange From Baseline (Randomization) in Creatinine Clearance Estimated Using the Adjusted Cockcroft-Gault FormulaBaseline, Week 24
Creatinine clearance by the Cockcroft-Gault formula is computed in mL/min/1.73m\^2 from the creatinine clearance in mL/min by multiplying it by 1.73 and dividing it by the body surface area Baseline was Day 28 visit.
SecondaryChange From Baseline (Randomization) in Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimated by Abbreviated Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) FormulaBaseline, Week 24
Change in glomerular filtration rate was calculated using the MDRD abbreviated formula. GFR in mL/min/1.73m\^2 for men of non-black ethnicity: 186 \* \[C/88\]\^-1.154 \* \[A\]\^-0.023\*G\*R ; C = serum creatinine (in μmol/L); A = Age (in years). G = 0.742 when the patient is a women; Otherwise G=1 R= 1.21 when the patient was of black ethnicity; Otherwise R = 1 Baseline was Day 28 visit.
